Jon can hit the high notes sometimes, just like Always sometimes sounds good and sometimes it doesnt. The bottom line here is would you rather hear a strained These Days? or I got the girl? We had the vote, we should have all known that he couldnt hit those notes before we voted. As for the vocals that night? the crowd couldnt hear it because it is loud in the crowd and when you are in the mood you can criticize properly. Feb 2003 i saw them in Toronto and it sounded amazing, when i heard the boot i realized that he does struggle sometimes but thats ok its only one aspect of the show. And as far as being in the mood? wow.
